  • The primary objective of this study was to assess the knowledge of medical students and determine variation between different cultural groups. A secondary aim was to find out the willingness to pay for cervical cancer vaccination and the relationships between knowledge and attitudes towards Human Papillomavirus vaccination. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in a private medical university between June 2014 and November 2014 using a convenient sampling method. A total of 305 respondents were recruited and interviewed with standard questionnaires for assessment of knowledge, attitudes and practice towards human papilloma virus and their willingness to pay for HPV vaccination. Knowledge regarding human papilloma virus, human papilloma virus vaccination, cervical cancer screening and cervical cancer risk factors was good. Across the sample, a majority (90%) of the pupils demonstrated a high degree of knowledge about cervical cancer and its vaccination. There were no significant differences between ethnicity and the participants' overall knowledge of HPV infection, Pap smear and cervical cancer vaccination. Some 88% of participants answered that HPV vaccine can prevent cervical cancer, while 81.5% of medical students said they would recommend HPV vaccination to the public although fewer expressed an intention to receive vaccination for themselves.

  • The strength of the PB(Private Brand) is that it can eliminate intermediary in the distribution channel and thoroughly control the quality under its own name. This study has developed traditional studies on private brand proneness in approaching data processing and empirical point of view of a consumer's attitude buildup process on PB through 'recognition-attitude-action(behavioral attitude)'. The subjects of this study are consumers in their $20s{\sim}40s$ who are main customer groups of PBs. A screening process has taken place to select consumers with purchasing experiences of retailor PBs. The data is analyzed by 'Structural Equation Modeling' of Amos 5.0 to verify consumer attitude formation model on private apparel brand. The results generated from this study are as follows: First, the proposed consumer attitude model on private apparel brand consists of store evaluation, experiential product evaluation, cognitive product evaluation, hedonic attitude, utilitarian attitude and purchase intention. Second, not only positively influence on utilitarian attitude but hedonic attitude can arouse positive emotional reaction of a consumer. Third, the store evaluation is ahead of the product evaluation because PB is more related to the image of a store. The influence of the store on PB is relatively stronger when compared with NB.

해남 대흥사 대웅보전 삼세불상을 통해 본 17세기 조선시대 불상의 제작기법 연구 (On the Research of 17th Century Joseon Dynasty's Bulsang, a Buddist Statue, Manufacturing Technique by Examining the Daeungbojeon Hall Samse-bulsang, The Buddha of the Three Words, at the Haenam Daeheungsa Temple)

  • 해남 대흥사 대웅보전에는 석가모니불을 중심으로 좌우에 약사불과 아미타불을 배치한 형식의 석가삼세불상이 봉안되어 있다. 그동안 이 삼세불상은 목조불로 알려져 왔으나 X-선 촬영 결과, 본존불을 제외한 좌우불에서 나무 위에 입힌 소조층이 함께 관찰되었다. 따라서 대흥사의 삼세불상은 조선시대 목조불상 및 소조기법이 적용된 불상을 함께 살펴볼 수 있는 좋은 사례가 될 수 있을 것이다. 조선시대 접목조불상의 전형을 보여주고 있는 본존 석가모니불상은 크게 5개의 목재를 접목하여 형상을 완성하고 있으며, 약사와 아미타불은 10개 이상의 목재를 접목하여 외형에 가깝도록 조각한 뒤 그 위로 점토를 발라 소조기법으로 형상을 완성하고 있다. 즉 내부의 목재가 심(芯)의 역할을 한다고 할 수 있는데, 목재의 접목방식이 조선시대의 목조불상보다는 소조불상의 기법에 가깝다. 그러나 목심 위에 새끼줄을 감고 그 위에 점토를 두껍게 바른 것이 아니라 나무 위에 직접 점토를 얇게 발랐으며, 얼굴 부분이 완전히 목조로만 이루어진 것이 특징적이다. 이와 같은 이유로 애초 작가의 조성의도가 목불이었을 가능성도 배제할 수 없으나 복장기록에 '소성(塑成)'이라는 단어가 사용된 것으로 보아 불상 조성이 완료된 시점에 이들 불상을 소조상으로 인식했음을 알 수 있다. 즉 대흥사 좌우불은 조선시대식 소조기법의 한 예로 보아도 좋을 것이라 생각한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 대흥사 삼세불상의 X-선 촬영을 통해 얻은 화상정보를 바탕으로 이들 불상의 내부구조와 접목방식을 살펴보고 이를 통해 조선시대 불상 제작기법을 밝혀보고자 하였다.

  • Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a mild cognitive impairment (MCI) management program on traditional Korean medicine in a public health center. Methods: In order to examine the effect of the MCI management program, we investigated MCI patients who participated in the program. MCI patients were treated with Jodeung-san (JDS) or Dangguijagyag-san (DGJYS) for 6 weeks. Mini Mental State Examination-Dementia Screening (MMSE-DS), Geriatric Quality of Life-Dementia (GQOL-D), Geriatric Depression Scale in Korea (GDS-K), and biochemical examination of blood were conducted at intervals of 6 weeks. A satisfaction survey was collected after this program. Results: MMSE-DS mean score increased significantly, by 4.09 (p=0.000) in the JDS group and by 4.15 (p=0.000) in the DGJYS group. GQOL-D mean score also increased significantly, by 5.90 (p=0.000) in the JDS group and by 5.07 (p=0.000) in the DGJYS group. GDS-K mean score decreased significantly, by 10.63 (p=0.000) in the JDS group and by 9.69 (p=0.000) in the DGJYS group. MMSE-DS, GDS-K and GQOL-D scores were not significantly different between the JDS and DGJYS groups. All of the participants were satisfied with the program, and 90% of the participants expressed a high intention to participate in the program again. Conclusions: Both Jodeung-san and Dangguijagyag-san treatment showed improvement on cognitive function, depression and quality of life in this program. Additional studies with more subjects will be required to prove credibility and validity more clearly.

  • 현재 보험시장은 비대면(非對面)채널 성장에 따른 대면채널의 기여도 감소와 대면채널 유지측면에서 고비용이 소요되는 현실적인 문제에 직면해있다. 이에 따라 설계사 조직의 생산성 향상 즉 보험설계사의 성과 향상요인이 무엇인지를 실증하는 것이 본 연구의 목적이다. 보험설계사의 성격요인과 개인-환경적합성이 직무만족도, 이직의도에 미치는 영향을 고찰해 본 결과 설계사의 외향성, 성실성, 개방성, 원만성, 정서성, 정직성을 나타내는 성격요인은 조직몰입과 직무만족에 유의한 영향을 미치고 있다. 즉, 보험설계사의 성격이 활기차고 외향적이며, 다른 사람과의 공감성이 높을수록 회사에 강한 소속감을 갖고 몰입하는 정도가 높아진다고 할 수 있다. 이는 설계사의 도입 단계에서부터 선별 도입이 이루어져야할 필요성을 대변하고 있다. 반면 성격요인은 이직의도에는 유의한 영향을 미치지 아니하였다. 이는 설계사의 이직은 개인의 성격에 의하여 발생하는 것 보다는 개인성격 외의 요인에 영향을 받고 있음을 실증한 결과이다. 상사적합성, 직무적합성, 동료적합성, 조직적합성을 나타내는 개인-환경적합성은 조직몰입, 직무만족, 이직의도 모두에 유의한 영향을 미치고 있다. 즉, 상사나 동료와 가치관이나 성격, 일하는 방식 등이 비슷하고, 자신의 일이 적성에 잘 맞으며 조직과의 적합성이 높을수록 회사에 대해 소속감을 갖고 몰입하는 정도가 높아진다고 할 수 있다. 또한 교육을 통하여 보험 설계사의 성격에 따른 조직몰입과 직무만족도를 향상시킬 수 있음을 알게 되었다. 이는 교육이 설계사를 좀 더 긍정적인 측면의 외향성을 갖게 하고 성실하게 본인의 업무를 처리하게 하며 윤리적 영업이 가능하게 함을 시사한다. 본 연구의 성과는 보험설계사를 대상으로 실시한 성격요인과 직무만족도, 이직의도에 대한 최초의 실증연구결과이다.

NP (New paragraph) $\gg$ We conducted our research by utilizing a modified version of the study created by Hwang (2000) and by using the help of prior research and professionals gathered from the parish nurse questionnaire by Djupe (1990). The data in this study were collected from July 1 to Oct. 31, 2001, using the questionnaire method. The Data were analyzed by: (a) frequency: (b) percentage: (c) mean: (d) standard deviation, and x^2-test$ with SPSS/PC program. The study has found the follows: 1. For subjects making demands on the parish nursing service, 95.8% were in need of using the services of parish nurses. On the demands of parish nursing service for the subjects, 95.8% the necessity of parish nursing services. And they answered by their intention of asking for parish nursing service practice. 2. Of the subjects under review, 71.9% were part-time workers and 28.1% were full-time employees 71.9% of part time and 28.1% of full times duty. In terms of the method of pay for work, 41.8% were pay free or freelance while 51.2% were on salary. And engagement intention of parish nurse as preacher was 88.5%. 3. The demand for nursing services in various categories were as follows. (a) hospice care: (4.02 1.11), (b) health screening: (3.98 1.09), (c) home visiting: (3.97 1.16), (d) group health education: (3.81 1.12), (e) organization of volunteer groups: (3.75 1.12), (f) individual health education: (3.75 1.14), (g) advice on choosing hospital or hospital consultation: (3.69 1.21) and (h) individual counseling: (3.51 1.31). 4. In terms of the specific services rendered by parish nurses. our study found that services were needed for the following: physical symptom management; preparation before death in spiritual preparation for death, blood pressure check in health examination, home visiting where the patient makes phone call, management of chronic disease in group health education, disease management in individual health education, advice on choosing hospital, or hospital consultation: and physical problems in individual counseling. 5. With respect to whether there was a correlation between what church a pastor came from and the types of demands made, there was NO significant difference found. 6. In relation to the characteristics of the subjects and their church and the hope demands (duty pattern and method of payment and engagement intention of parish nurse as preacher) for parish nurses, these had non significant differences. In conclusion, the perception of parish nursing service is very high. Moreover, we found that there is a great demand for well ordered parish nursing services to promote the health of each congregation. Before doing so, it would be better to make things known and to consider the relevant characteristics shown in the researched results.

  • Background: Cervical cancer is known as one of the most prevalent types of cancers and a major public health problem in developing countries which can be detected by Pap test, prevented, and treated. Despite the effective role of Pap test in decreasing the incidence and mortality due to cervical cancer, it is still one the most common causes of cancer-related deaths among women, especially in developing countries. Thus, this study aimed to examine the effect of educational interventions implemented by health volunteers based on protection motivation theory (PMT) on promoting Pap test use among women. Materials and Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted on 60 health volunteers and 420 women. The study participants were divided into an intervention and a control group. Data were collected using a valid self-reported questionnaire including demographic variables and PMT constructs which was completed by both groups before and 2 months after the intervention. Then, the data were entered into the SPSS statistical software, version 19 and were analyzed using Chi-square test, independent T-test, and descriptive statistical methods. P<0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Results: The findings of this study showed that the mean scores of PMT constructs (i.e. perceived vulnerability, perceived severity, fear, response-costs, self-efficacy, and intention) increased in the intervention group after the intervention (P<0.001). However, no significant difference was found between the two groups regarding response efficacy after the intervention (P=0.06). The rate of Pap test use also increased by about 62.9% among the study women. Conclusions: This study showed a significant positive relationship between PMT-based training and Pap test use. The results also revealed the successful contribution of health volunteers to training cervical cancer screening. Thus, training interventions based on PMT are suggested to be designed and implemented and health volunteers are recommended to be employed for educational purposes and promoting the community's, especially women's, health.
